Download or read book Down the Hatch written by M. C. Beaton and published by Minotaur Books. This book was released on 2021-10-26 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beloved New York Times bestseller M. C. Beaton's cranky, crafty Agatha Raisin—now the star of a hit T.V. show—is back on the case again in Down the Hatch. Private detective Agatha Raisin, having recently taken up power-walking, is striding along a path in Mircester Park during her lunch break when she hears a cry for help. Rushing over, she finds an elderly couple, Mr. and Mrs. Swinburn, in the middle of the green—with the body of an old man lying at their feet. The man, who the coroner determines died by poisoning, was known as "the Admiral," a gardener notorious for his heavy drinking, and Chief Inspector Wilkes writes the death off as an accident caused by the consumption of weedkiller stored in a rum bottle. Agatha is not convinced that anyone would mistake weedkiller for rum but carries on with her work at Raisin Investigations, until she receives an anonymous tip that the Admiral’s death was no accident. Local gossip points to the Swinburns themselves as the killers, spurred by a feud at the club where they, as well as the Admiral, were members. Distraught at this accusation, they turn to Agatha to clear their name, and she takes the case—despite the warnings of Chief Inspector Wilkes. Agatha encounters one suspicious character after another, becoming further enmeshed in the Admiral’s own dark and shady past. And when she's run off the road, narrowly escaping with her life, and then another attack occurs, it becomes clear that someone doesn’t want the case closed—and will stop at nothing to prevent Agatha from solving it.

This book was released on 2021-07-27 with total page 751 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When we look at the state of affairs and the matters as they stand now, we find ourselves either living in an age of anxiety, even with prevalent material prosperity fostered by economic and technological development, or living in an age of turmoil if beset with social disorder owing to ongoing political and social conflicts, wars, hunger, disease, poverty and economic hardships, or living in a state of turbulence - a state in between the states of anxiety and turmoil where we have limited economic opportunities for all conjoined with lesser level of social disorder, but nevertheless without mass scale upheavals and conflicts. Irrespective of the state we are in, depending on our present state of socio-economic, political, geographic and cultural situation and context, we find ourselves searching for the state of equilibrium where we can live with positivity, optimism, inner peace, tranquility, happiness and success. How to achieve this positive inner state to overcome anxiety, turbulence, or turmoil we find ourselves in, requires a deeper look into real factors that lead to overcoming these negative and undesirous states. The purpose of this treatise is to expound the alternatives to negativities, despair, depression, and despondency, in the form of resilience, optimism and positivity in thoughts, feelings, words, deeds and being. The result of this transformation in attitudes - both inner and outer - results in inner peace, tranquility, happiness, and a timeless outlook on life and its challenges, imbuing eternal happiness and endless triumph that starts in this very earthly existence but then transcends the constraints of time and space into a life of eternity immortalizing a human being. This book will be a succor to the helpless, an aid to the distressed whose plights are unbearable, a relief for those immersed in inner sufferings in the form of despair, depression, sadness, frustrations and inner void, a light for those who are surrounded with darkness, a guide for those searching for the truth, purpose and meaning of their lives, and a pathway for those desiring to become better and turn things around for themselves, their families, their communities, their nations and the world.
